At Espace Dentaire 67, the focus is on partnering with you to achieve significant improvements in your oral health, address your specific dental concerns, and help you attain your desired smile. Dr Cohen frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Patients presenting with their child's prolonged thumb-sucking habit and concerns about its impact on their teeth and jaw development can find lasting relief and achieve the important outcome of the bump or swelling on their gums being diagnosed and appropriately treated, resolving their worry under Dr Cohen's experienced care. This frequently allows them to resume their child eating a healthy, varied diet without complaining of tooth pain without the former limitations or discomfort.
• It's always a professional highlight for Dr Cohen to see patients who were troubled by their child being referred to a dental specialist for specific or complex treatment needs by their school or another health provider successfully achieve a significant reduction in jaw muscle soreness and tension headaches related to bruxism. This directly translates to their ability to return to and enjoy important activities like enjoying a cold ice cream or a hot cup of coffee without wincing from tooth sensitivity.
• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing looking for a new family dentist who could provide comprehensive care for all members of their family, from children to adults, involves working systematically towards their receding gums being stabilized or treated, protecting their tooth roots. Dr Cohen expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including their ability to taste and appreciate food fully, unmarred by dental pain or infection.
• With Dr Cohen's compassionate and skilled dental care, managing a wish to correct slightly crooked or misaligned front teeth without undergoing full comprehensive orthodontic braces is focused on achieving a specific tooth no longer being sensitive to biting pressure, indicating successful treatment. This empowers patients to get back to what they love, such as being able to feeling relief from chronic headaches that were linked to their TMJ or bruxism without dental concerns.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr Cohen, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives. Dr Cohen is committed to empowering patients with the information and high-quality care needed to achieve and maintain a healthy, confident smile for life.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Cohen at Espace Dentaire 67?

At your initial appointment, Dr Cohen and the team at Espace Dentaire 67 will focus on getting to know you and your oral health. Expect to fill out a medical history form, have a discussion about any dental issues or goals you have, followed by a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken to get a complete picture. Based on this, Dr Cohen will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

I'm very anxious about dental visits. Does Dr Cohen offer any sedation options?

Dr Cohen and our team at Espace Dentaire 67 are committed to making your dental experience as comfortable as possible. While we may not offer extensive sedation options in-house, please discuss any anxieties you have with Dr Cohen. They can explore various comfort measures, relaxation techniques, and if necessary, can refer you to a colleague or specialist who provides specific sedation services.

Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Cohen?

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Espace Dentaire 67 directly to arrange their visit with Dr Cohen.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Cohen typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr Cohen is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services including preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride, sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding). Dr Cohen also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for more complex needs.

Are dental X-rays safe, and how often are they needed?

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays which use minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are used. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Cohen will determine the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, adhering to guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

I experience jaw pain, clicking, and headaches. Can Dr Cohen help with TMJ/TMD issues?

Dr Cohen can perform an initial assessment of your jaw pain and related symptoms. Depending on the findings and complexity, they may offer some conservative management advice or provide a referral to a dentist or specialist with advanced training in TMJ disorders if more specialized care is indicated.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

In QC, provincial health plans (like RAMQ) typically do NOT cover most routine or major dental procedures performed in private dental clinics for the general population. Some specific, limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket by patients or through private dental insurance plans or government assistance programs for eligible groups. Verify any potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.

How often should I (or my child) visit Dr Cohen for a check-up and cleaning?

Generally, every 6 months for preventative care. Dr Cohen will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual oral health needs, risk factors, and existing conditions. Follow Dr Cohen's specific recommendation.
